City of Woodburn Community Development Memorandum 270 Montgomery Street Woodburn, Oregon 97071 Phone (503) 982-5246 Fax (503) 982-5244 Date: April 23, 2024 To: Dago Garcia, P.E., City Engineer Cc: Curtis Stultz, Public Works Director Cole Grube, P.E., Project Engineer Chris Kerr, Community Development Director Bryan AnDyke, Land Development Project Manager, Lennar Northwest, LLC Zeb Buswell, Canby Excavating From: Colin Cortes, AICP, CNU-A, Senior Planner Subject: Smith Creek Development Phase 4A Apr. 19 second inspection follow- up (FSUB 22-01) Introduction Cole, Brenda, and I had walked through Smith 4A on Wednesday, March 13 with Bryan AnDyke, Land Development Project Manager, Lennar Northwest, LLC as an inspection of improvements. On Friday, April 19, Cole e-mailed me that the contractor had e-mailed April 17 to claim completion of all punchlist items, and I re-inspected the subdivision April 19. Below is a summary of outstanding items per planning and zoning second inspection. Correction Items Remaining missing items and unresolved issues include the below in italics plus new Item G: ---PAGE BREAK--- Smith 4A (FSUB 22-01) 4/19/2024 second inspection results Planning Div. review group, memo 4/23/2024 2 C. Street trees: 3. 2+ are missing from Eaden Street south of Ruiz Ln: a. Land use final order Condition PUD-14 from p. 68 states: “Eaden Street: Phase 4A: Street trees along the west side of Eaden Street that are in discontinuous planter strips or wells shall each have a minimum planting area of 36 sq ft with a narrowest dimension of 4 ft. Trees may be sunk within wells or planted at or near sidewalk elevation. If sunk, wells must be covered with metal grates and not plastic ones.” The good news is that 2 planters are installed at minimum width 4 feet (ft); the bad news is that each is 4 x 4 ft equaling 16 sq ft despite the condition requiring minimum area 36 square ft (sq ft). Saw cut concrete north and/or south to add 20 sq ft (add 5 ft length of 4-foot width) to each of the two planters. b. The set of landscape plans approved Oct. 5, 2023, Sheet L4.0, illustrates what appears to be a continuous planter strip. c. Of the 6 trees, the north 2 are required at present with the subdivision because they are adjacent to a private common area tract and so need not wait for dwelling construction and final inspection. D. Greenway: 2. Amenities: a. Sheet L2.0: All the symbolized and called out greenway trail amenities and support facilities are missing: bench, 2 bicycle U-racks on 8 x 6-ft concrete pad, dog waste station with sign, trash receptacle, park use/hours sign, and wayfinding pole sign. Refer to Sheet L5.0 for specs. What remains missing are per the attached landscape Sheets L2.0 & L3.0 marked with red comments. ---PAGE BREAK--- Smith 4A (FSUB 22-01) 4/19/2024 second inspection results Planning Div. review group, memo 4/23/2024 3 The photo below goes with the Sheet L3.0 comment about the west bicycle parking: 3. Futsal court: With the Community Services Director (parks and rec manager) having indicated willingness to bond, Planning staff expects construction past platting no later than by the first of any dwellings. When parks and rec staff issues a futsal court bond approval, the developer is to submit a copy to the Planning Division in order to pass subdivision inspection. 4. Drainage: Positive drainage is lacking along the north side of the trail a little east of the north-south segment. Correct to preclude pooling of water and in a way that the Public Works Department Engineering Division accepts. The developer is to resolve. ---PAGE BREAK--- Smith 4A (FSUB 22-01) 4/19/2024 second inspection results Planning Div. review group, memo 4/23/2024 4 F. Private common area improvements: 1. Parking, common area pooled: a. All is missing double-striping per Woodburn Development Ordinance (WDO) Figure 3.05C. The pooled parking areas that are striped are single-striped. They’re required to be double-striped per WDO Figure 3.05C reproduced below: WDO Figure 3.05C - Parking Space Striping The developer is to stripe the correct striping. In an end stall adjacent to side curb, it’s permissible to have half of the double striping, i.e. an elongated or shape stripe. b. All areas requiring wheel stops per WDO 3.05.02H, including stalls abutting walkways, are missing such. This includes the parking: … Between Milne Ln and Eaden St; The 3 easternmost stalls between Eaden St and Sifuentez Ct; and Between Sifuentez Ct and Lacey Ln. The developer is to install, “concrete or rubber bumper guards or wheel barriers maximum 4 inches high”. ---PAGE BREAK--- Smith 4A (FSUB 22-01) 4/19/2024 second inspection results Planning Div. review group, memo 4/23/2024 5 2. Playground: Planning staff is reviewing the bond request paperwork. Expect the playground to be due past platting no later than by the first of any dwellings. Staff would issue closer to the time of third inspection. 4. Landscaping: Plan all remaining trees and shrubbery to be planted on private common area tracts. A subarea of greenway Tract A isn’t landscaped: the spur path located between Lots 8 & 9, at Sifuentez Court. The developer is to landscape. G. New item / re-inspection fee: Because a third inspection is needed, per Planning Division fee schedule p. 2, a third inspection fee of $250 is due prior to the next inspection. The developer is to call or visit Cassandra Martinez, Administrative Specialist with the Planning Division, to begin payment process, (503) 982-5246.
